Betty moved to Willow Valley Communities from outside of
Washington, DC in 2018, retiring from a 26-year career with
the US Air Force. She said COVID threw a monkey wrench
into her normally busy life at Willow Valley Communities,
but she has adjusted. “We can’t get together the way we
are used to,” Betty explained, “but I have been so pleased
with how Willow Valley Communities has been able to
continue that same engagement and vibrancy to the fullest
extent possible.”
Betty said she continues to be challenged mentally,
spiritually, and emotionally — albeit virtually — by all
Willow Valley Communities departments. She highlights the
online fitness classes in particular. “I really enjoy those,” she
said, “especially the daily live fitness classes on Facebook.
We are not losing the energy…We are just approaching
it differently.”
Betty continued, “I so treasure how Willow Valley
Communities is balancing vibrancy with keeping us safe.
Willow Valley Communities is doing a tremendous job in
helping us make the right decisions in the healthiest
ways possible.”
